Hi. There's just something that I wanted to mention. Ruth had selected 'Netherlands' as my location. Well, I am Dutch, but I am in the United Kingdom. However, lately I've been thinking a lot about my roots and where before I would slag off my native land because of some negative experiences (mainly a lot of bullying at school), I now am very proud to be a 'Netherlander' and have started discovering things about the place where I grew up in and I've realised that it may not be perfect, but there are a lot of good aspects to Dutch society. I often really miss that tiny but amazingly diverse country on the other side of the North Sea and would like to be able to use my mother tongue more frequently. Anyway, this was supposed to be a mini-biography, but it's just about me having come to terms with my identity as a Dutchman.
